Attack Bodywork + M4 Exhaust

esi7esi7 · January 26th, 2010, 11:31 AM

Just giving y'all a heads up...

If you get the Attack bodywork (full kit, currently on closeout for $499+shipping or about $565 shipped), you will have to trim it (or make a bracket) because the exhaust is hitting the edge of the lower.

Not sure if any other bodywork out there doesn't require this modification.

I am a little dissapointed since Attack is supposed to be good stuff!

Good to know. I should be getting my Hotbodies this week and VR exhaust next week. I'll report how the install goes.

I've found that using some heat shield material on the belly pan really helps.

I installed my Attack body work on my 09 with no fitting problems. I had the stock exhaust on with a Yosh slip on with no problems, then installed the Yosh full system without any problems.

That's great that yours fit. One thing I didn't think of is that the bike I bought had been down a few times. Maybe some of the mounting points are bent...shrug...

Next review, these crash well.

First track day of the season, first session, down I go. Another guy went down in the same turn and they ended up reconfiguring the track to avoid anymore spills. Apparently there was gravel or oil or something I didn't see. It was a pretty low speed turn so the damage was minimal.

Good to hear the damage was minimal and you were not hurt.

Good thing it was the 250 and not your 600!

looks like frame sliders would have actually done some good. Do you run a rear peg for that reason?
Glad you are OK.
